LLVMSwift:LLVM C API 的 Swift 封装库

LLVMSwift

LLVMSwift is a set of Swifty API wrappers for the LLVM C API. It makes compiler development feel great from Swift!

Usage

To start emitting IR, you'll want to create a Module object, with an optional Context parameter, and an IRBuilder that will build instructions for that module.

let module = Module(name: "main")
let builder = IRBuilder(module: module)

Once you do that, you can start adding functions, global variables, and generating instructions!

let main = builder.addFunction(name: "main", 
                               type: FunctionType(argTypes: [], 
                                                  returnType: VoidType())
let entry = builder.appendBasicBlock(named: "entry")
builder.positionAtEnd(of: entry)

builder.buildRetVoid()

module.dump()

The IRBuilder class has methods for almost all functions from the LLVM C API, like:

  • builder.buildAdd
  • builder.buildSub
  • builder.buildMul
  • builder.buildCondBr
  • builder.addSwitch

and so many more.

Plus, it provides common wrappers around oft-used types like Function , Global , Switch , and PhiNode .

Installation

There are a couple, annoying steps you need to get it working before it'll build. Number one, you'll need a custom cllvm pkg-config file, which is included in the repo. Drop that in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig and make sure you have LLVM installed through homebrew :

brew install llvm

Once you do that, you can add LLVMSwift as a dependency for your own Swift compiler projects!

This project is used byTrill for all its code generation.
